Residue | Rate (day−1) | t1/2 (day) | Sequence | Predicted t1/2 (day) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Asn −5 | (2.24 ± 1.44) × 10−3 | 310 ± 200 | VNA | 27.5 |
Asn −3 | (2.68 ± 0.14) × 10−2 | 26 ± 1 | ANG | 1.05 |
Gln 4 | (6.80 ± 1.20) × 10−3 | 102 ± 18 | RQR | 2300 |
Gln 12 | (1.44 ± 0.83) × 10−3 | 483 ± 279 | YQT | 5600 |
The deamidation rate is calculated for the sum of the intensities of the two side chain NH2 peaks for each residue in Fig. 4a. The predicted t1/2 for the flanking tripeptide sequence (in single letter amino acid code) is derived from Robinson et al. [4; 5]. Fitted deamidation rates for Asn 23, Gln 44, Gln 50, and Asn 51 are < 1.25 × 10−3day−1 and are not significantly different from zero (not shown).
